Guild Wars 2

While this is not a ‘bug’ per se I want to point towards an issue I encountered and had to send in a support ticket to (hopefully) solve it.

I bought the 16 terrestrial guild weapons twice to use them to craft both of the new sets, the Shimmering and Tenebrous weapons. Problem is: I bought them on a character that is supposed to store them till I got the missing materials but they turned out to be souldbound-on-acquire. With this tag they not only can not be transfered to the character with the appropriate crafting profession but they can’t be used while in a bank tab either.

So I’d suggest to remove the ‘souldbound on acquire’ from them. There’d be probably also the possibility to make souldbound items be used in crafting even to they are bound to other characters but I think the only soulbound equipment that are used in a crafting recipe are guild weapons.

The new zones require HoT and for some reason they don’t want HoT zones to have guild missions.

Obviously because not everyone in every guild has HoT (shame on them) But still getting some new bounties/challenges there or even a new puzzle (since there are only 3) would be awesome.

Guild commendations are used to buy the items listed here. If you don’t want to click, it’s 1-3 comms for RNG gear boxes, guild banners, and guild siege. 5 For some guild back pieces, 4-7 for guild weapons, 10 for some insignias, 12 for ascended accessories, and 20-25 for status items like minis and tonics.

The Guild Trader (guild hall upgrade) allows you to buy 3 items a day. It sells a random ascended recipe, the crystal unique to your guild hall, a karma item, a random rotation of base decoration ingredients, and worthless bags of loot or minor sigils. That seems like a lot of variety, right? Wrong. The main use of guild commendations for the majority of players is buying accessories. Heart of Thorns stats and certain other special stat sets are not available for purchase from these merchants. Instead, you must obtain them through raids, Fractals, Ember Bay farming, and Bitterfrost farming.

In your listing as well as your link you forgot the guild armour and weapon recipes for the ornate guild armour and tenebrous/shimmering weapons as well as the necessity to buy the old guild weapons to upgrade them to the new ones. And the new minis that cost between 25 and 75 as well as scribing which uses commendations as well.

I personally thing there is more than enough use for commendations but people seem not to value those thinks like skins and minis enough. :/

So far I agree tho with all your points. There seems to be not enough incentive to keep on doing guild missions every week. I run guild missions in my guild (80-ish people) and if we’re a 5man group we’re a lot. Used to do them on my own. :/

Vision Crystals can be salvaged so I wouldn’t add those but Augur’s Stone instead.
Also Agony Infusions? I think they’d have to add all the tiers then and that’s not going to happen. You get more than a stack of +1 infusions in two days just from dailies. So no use for that :"D

Globs of Ectoplasm can also be salvaged and they go in. I still vote for those crystals to get a mats tab slot

Yes, that’s true. I thought you could salvage them with a normal kit and get all mats back which would result in 3copper cost. But I looked it up again and saw that you need a ascended salvage kit and you don’t even get all mats back, so i revoke my statement. Give us the storage slot!

Things I’d like to see:
-Blade shards
-Amalgamated Gemstones
-Blade Shards.
-Tenebrous & Shimmering Crystals
-Badges of Tribute
-Integrated Fractal Matrices
-Augur’s Stone
-Mystic Crystals
-Philosopher’s Stones
-Doubloons
-Milling Basins

I didn’t notice it when I experienced it but now that you mentioning it in hindsight I was kinda irritated and thought “Didn’t he have a mask on?” but didn’t think about it that much. :/ Weird!

My friend and I noticed while fighting Vale Guardian that the Necromancers off-hand dagger skill 4 [Deathly Swarm] almost always misses with an <Obstructed> marker. I primarily noticed it while fighting the red guardian. Even tho there is no object in the way and perfectly good line of sight it still counts as obstructed and leaves us with a ton of self-inflicted condis. :/

It may or may not get obstructed by minions or the speed boost mushroom but I cant really tell what’s the problem and what “object” causes the obstruction.

I have this option unticked – but it keeps re-ticking itself every time I close the game.

Same for me.

same here and it drives me nuts _

Same. I can play but sometimes the game just crashes mid-loading screen.

Had this now once while leaving Obsidian Sanctum to LA and twice while joining Fractals.

That’s something i would like to know too. I don’t mind playing 150 songs but doing the JP 150 times or keeping myself from ragequiting snowball mayhem 150 times instead of 30 times makes quite a diference.

We believe this is resolved, but by all means please do post if you are still not able to log in. Any messaging you get — especially an error code — would be extra helpful.

Thanks.

Hope you can fix it soon. Trying to play/login for 5 hours without success

During the test today I found this bug: see attachement

It happens when i channel Ventari. The animation worked first, but stopped working after some legend swaps. The other legends are fine only Ventari wont show up properly.
